AGENCY: National Archives and Records Administration (NARA).

ACTION: Notice of revised schedule of closure and reopening of 
reference services for certain testual records holdings in the National 
Archives related to the move to the National Archives at College Park 
(Archives II) and the relocation of some records to the National 
Archives Building.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This notice provides information about the period of time that 
reference service on certain textual records holdings of the National 
Archives will be unavailable due to the move of those holdings from 
their current locations in the National Archives Building in 
Washington, DC, and the Washington National Records Center in Suitland, 
Maryland, to new locations in either the new Archives II facility in 
College Park, Maryland, or the National Archives Building in 
Washington, DC.
    During the periods shown for the record groups listed on the 
schedule at the end of this notice, the National Archives will be 
unable to provide records for research, or process requests for 
reproductions (fee orders) or requests for information from these 
records. Requests received during the periods of suspended service will 
be returned for resubmission after the date indicated for reopening the 
records for reference service.

Background

for records to move from the Washington National Records Center in 
Suitland, MD, to the National Archives Building in Washington, DC,

groups listed below.
    For schedule updates and information on the new location of the 
records, call: User Services Division at (202) 501-5400.
